I wonder if someone can tell me something about this sword

[tendis]

Can anyone tell me something about this sword? Origin age and history?

I am willing to pay someone to make me some history about this and more swords!

I assume you paid roughly $15-$20 on the sword plus $70-$100 on shipping? I suggest trying to sell it , and not as a Japanese blade either. Take whatever money you get and buy a book on Nihonto. The sting of buying a fake lingers long after the thrill of a bargain is gone. The story's some vendors come up with sometimes seem convincing("my uncle was plowing a field dug this up") but rest assured if its coming out of China.... it was made there and not in Japan.

the tsuba theme is Uesugi kenshin.................probably copied from some ukiyo-e ( musha-e ). The whole set up is modern fake.

There.............. some history for your sword.

Feel free to make some donation to the sword list as Brian the moderator/censor needs $ to maintain the site and increase bandwidth ( or whatever ) so we can post pics.
